“We are incredibly honored that Pat Mitchell will be part of our annual gala,” mentioned Saprea Managing Director Chris Yadon. “She has championed the issues of women and girls her entire career and is now lending her voice to the issue of child sexual abuse. Child sexual abuse impacts more than 1 million children a year in the U.S. and Pat will help us bring a greater awareness to this silent epidemic.”
Throughout her profession as a journalist, Emmy-winning producer and pioneering govt, Mitchell broke new floor for girls, elevating girls’s tales and concepts. She continues that mission because the co-founder of LinkedWomenLeaders, a cohort of world leaders dedicated to collective downside fixing, targeted presently on a women-led local weather justice marketing campaign to maintain a liveable planet.

In her memoir, “Becoming a Dangerous Woman: Embracing Risk to Change the World,” Mitchell shares her journey as a frontline advocate for equality and social justice, defining ‘dangerous’ as a dedication to talk up for these unrepresented, to talk out towards abuse and injustice, and to point out up for others.
“Pat Mitchell’s life and work models how to share power and the difference each of us can make in shaping a fairer, more equitable and sustainable world,” Yadon mentioned. “We are living in dangerous times for women and girls, and the first steps to change this reality is to speak the truth even when silence is a safer option; to speak out against injustice when we experience it or witness it; to stand up for those who aren’t represented and cannot speak for themselves, and to show up for each other,” mentioned Mitchell. “This is how therapeutic begins, and that is what turning into harmful means to me — being prepared to take the dangers to alter lives.”
